Summer often sees us reaching for wines of a lighter hue, and while we have some wonderful rosé recommendations from both Italy and Portugal, here we’ve decided to focus on white wines.
The selection below showcases a variety of grapes and regions from both hemispheres, taking in New Zealand, Italy and Australia, as well as a few intriguing curios – all perfect picnic accompaniments.
